<br />If you have previously corrected a property, it is <br />indicated by the triple x in the box and the <br />statement "community indicated property not <br />subject to repetitive flooding" above the <br />comments section, Please take a moment to <br />provide the newly requested addendum <br />information and re-submit the A W -50 I so that <br />we may capture the additional information, <br /> <br />Please take a moment to read the instructions <br />provided with the A W-501s. We have attempted <br />to explain the information you need to provide <br />to assure your correction is approved, If you <br />have any questions on how to enter and submit a <br />correction, please do not hesitate to contact me <br />at the Corrections Clearinghouse ((515) 278- <br />8186) prior to submitting your correction(s), <br />The phone call could save you additional work <br />later, You may also contact your designated <br />ISO/CRS Specialist for this assistance, <br /> <br />Please keep the following points in mind when <br />submitting corrections to A W-50Is: <br /> <br />It is not necessary to submit A W-50ls <br />that do not have corrections, If you do not <br />have a location correction and the property <br />is still subject to repetitive flooding, do not <br />send in the AW-50L <br /> <br />We can not change the insnred name. The <br />name associated with the last claim on the <br />property is provided for informational <br />purposes only and will change automatically <br />if the new owner files a subsequent claim. If <br />the insured name is your only correction, <br />there is no need to submit the correction. <br /> <br />We cannot directly change the zip code. <br />The zip code is system generated from the <br />rest of the property address key, If the zip <br />code is incorrect, it is probably due to an <br />incorrect street address or community name, <br />Review the address and community name <br />carefully and submit any needed corrections <br />to them. If the zip code is the only correc- <br />tion needed, do not send in the A W -50 L <br /> <br />If you are unable to locate the property <br />based on the description given, please <br />describe the efforts you took to locate the <br />property in the comments section of the <br />A W-501. We expect that at a minimum you <br />will have searched your tax records under <br />the name provided, If possible, your tax <br />records for the year of the last claim should <br /> <br />NFIP/CRS Update <br /> <br />- 10- <br /> <br />, <br /> <br />be searched to account for any recent <br />transfer of ownership, <br /> <br />If you are unable to locate the property <br />and it is currently insured, we will <br />attempt to obtain additional information <br />from the insurance agent. Please note that <br />currently, properties corrected in such a <br />manner are not indicated as such on the <br />A W-50L We anticipate that we will note <br />such corrections in the near future, In the <br />interim, if based on a search ofthe name <br />provided, you have submitted a property for <br />this type of correction in the past, you may <br />disregard the property at thIS tIme, <br /> <br />If you correct the property as "Flood <br />Protection Provided" or "No Building on <br />Property," please provide docnmentation <br />to support your correction, Common <br />documentation includes Elevation Certifi- <br />cates, demolition permits, or a deSCrIption <br />of the drainage system improvements, Some <br />comm!lllities simply provide a letter <br />explaining the actions that have been taken <br />to protect the property from future flood <br />claims and why they feel they have been <br />effective, <br /> <br />Remember that the correction" All losses <br />dne to events greater than the 100 year <br />flood" is only applicable to properties <br />either outside of the Special Flood <br />Hazard Area (SFHA) or within the SFHA <br />but at an elevation above the base flood <br />elevation. Also it only applies if all losses <br />were due to events greater than the 100 year <br />flood and can be documented as such, It <br />does not apply if the property is still subject <br />to flood damage from smaller floods. <br /> <br />Thank you for the efforts you have made to <br />correct the information we have provided you in <br />the past. We realize that in some cases the <br />information provided was dated and sometimes <br />difficult to understand, In recent years, your <br />efforts have helped us clarify the status of <br />several thousand repetitive loss properties. The <br />current National Repetitive Loss Strategy places <br />even greater emphasis on the importance of <br />your continued assistance, We continue to need <br />your help, <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Winter 2000 <br />
